Jackson has been keeping us all busy. Lauren and Jackson came home on Thursday. I am amazed that after giving birth Lauren has been up and around cleaning and doing other chores. I have been trying my best pitch in and keep up with my domestic responsibilities all the while keeping Maxfield and Wyatt occupied. Jackson was not home for 5 minutes when Wyatt realized the pecking order has changed and shifted. I am now his favorite and he does not like Lauren very much at this time. I decided the best way to keep the boys busy and to get the chores done was to make the boys part of the chores.

They say if you give a boy a pancake he eats for a day. Teach a boy to make pancakes and he makes a big mess.

oh geez. I've not read here in a long long time. (and my url changed since the last time I think....same blog, different url). And my gosh, your wife has a blog now...gah, been a while. Congrats! Precious family.

Awwww...he is just too sweet for words! Smart, smart dad/husband...keepin' them busy. They will be fighting over who can make Jackson laugh first before you know it! Have fun & enjoy this time. Congratulations daddy!

Way to go, Daddy Bill! Keep those boys busy and they will get back into their "groove" with their new brother. It sounds like Lauren is a CHAMP. I'm glad she's up and about.

I remember going from youngest to middle child of 3. In preparation for the new sister to arrive, my mom kept reading me this book about a little boy who was getting a new sibling and he felt left out. I was like, "Why are you reading this to me? I'm not upset." But then again, I had prayed for the new baby. Much to my parents' surprise, the Lord giveth.

Anyway, I'm sure you were enthralled with my walk down memory lane just now.
